BIC Highlighter Grip & Highlighter Grip Pastel Pack of 24

Delivered on time and as advertised

I use these to highlight lecture notes. I love these pastel colors!! I got these within 2 weeks of ordering them.

Product was used for highlighting important items.

I am sad because the original Brite Liner was apparently taken off the market. Back in April 2007, I wrote a heartfelt review on that product. Since then, I have been forced to get this new product, which looks and feels exactly like the previous model. It slides and fills ink the same way. In fact the writing on the barrel is exactly the same as the old ones. It is as efficient. I wonder if it lasts longer (I'll get back to you on that). Maybe it's nostalgia, maybe it's that I want my presence known, and when my reviewed product goes off the Amazon site, so does my review. Here is my original review from last year. It still applies -- at least as far as the highlighter is concerned. If anyone reads it, I would be extremely surprised: Sometimes my production manager Blane at the trophy shop pushes me too far. He uses this product to point out the multitude of errors on my invoices and work orders. I strongly believe that he's trying to compensate for something else, perhaps the errors his ex-wife complains about on the phone every other Friday, when her check hasn't arrived, or when she finds out that Blane is still spoon-feeding beer to the baby on visiting Sundays. The man uses the speakerphone in the assembly room so that as he argues he can still keep his hands moving, assembling Seaweed plaques and cutting blue aluminum trim plates. Half the time he's too drunk to care if the entire staff witnesses the ordeal. His face grows red and his faint orange brows vibrate as he defends himself. I don't have anything against Blane, but he shouldn't take it out on me. I'm not even in his department; I work in the showroom with customers who are irate enough. Yesterday I wrote an invoice for a beveled walnut trophy in a hurry, a rare sale these days, with a winged achievement figure on top. Blane sent the invoice back to my desk with a crisp and still wet highlighted circle around the word achievement. The pink oval reminded me of Blane's bloodshot eyes. As I was trying to figure out what I did wrong, Blane's real bloodshot eyes were hovering over my desk. He wanted to know if the achievement figure was supposed to be male or female, brass or plastic. He was right this time, and he knew that I knew it, but he didn't have to yell at me the same way he yells at his ex-wife on speakerphone, and he certainly didn't have to call me a careless Mexicano. It is quite enough that he takes delight in making the ink on the invoice run and swim in his sea of pink corrections. All right Blane, I get it! The pink highlighter is guaranteed to stay on the page bright and unforgiving for an eternity when you compare it with the typical yellow highlighter. When I quit my job at the trophy shop, I'm going to leave Blane a case of pink Brite Liners by Bic so he never runs out of ink.

These highlighters were recommended for Bible highlighting so I got them. While they will not bleed through "paper," they WILL bleed through thin Bible pages. No worries, I can use them...but not for my Bible. And I won't buy them again. They're really no better than any other highlighter.

These highlighters are awful. My old Sharpie highlighter leaves a darker mark than these! I use them to ring information on packing slips and they barely show!

Disappointed that there is bleed-though after highlighting in my Bible, even when quickly drawing the highlighter across text, in order to try to limit/minimize any bleed-through.

I bought the green pens and they are much too dark and saturate too quickly. Instead of highlighting the text, the ink obscures it. These are more like a regular marker than a highlighter. The ink also leaks out a bit, just above the marker tip, causing it to make a mess. However, it comfortably fits in my hand, so the rubber grip is a nice feature. I will not purchase these again.
